>Sorry I can't help you with you spelling, but just wondered what you >were going to do with the 1860 census once you get it transcribed. Joyce, My transcription is part of the US GenWeb Census Project. If you go to the following URL, you will find information for volunteers and also information about what censuses have been transcribed and which census images (as opposed to transcriptions) are available on-line. http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/census/states.htm I chose the 1860 census because the 1850 Rockingham County census images and index are already available through FTM's GenealogyLibrary.com.
